What Is Drone Photogrammetry?

Drone photogrammetry transforms overlapping aerial photographs into precise 3D models and maps. Using advanced algorithms, it creates survey-grade deliverables from hundreds of high-resolution images.

Precise 3D Measurements

Extract distances, areas, volumes, and elevations from any point in your model

Rapid Large-Area Coverage

Map hundreds of hectares in a single day with centimeter-level detail

Rich Data Deliverables

Orthomosaics, DEMs, DSMs, point clouds, and contour maps in multiple formats

Split screen showing aerial photo vs processed 3D model and orthomosaic

Transform aerial imagery into actionable 3D data and precise measurements

FAQ

Common Questions About Drone Photogrammetry

Everything you need to know about our managed photogrammetry service

With proper ground control points (GCPs), accuracies of ±2-5cm horizontal and vertical are standard. Without GCPs, expect ±1-2m accuracy. RTK/PPK drones can achieve ±5-10cm without GCPs.

Typically 5-10 GCPs per square kilometer for survey-grade accuracy. Larger areas need proportionally more. GCPs should be evenly distributed with some at site edges and elevation changes.

A single drone can map 100-400 hectares per day depending on required resolution. Higher resolution (1-2cm/pixel) reduces coverage to 50-100 hectares. Multiple batteries enable continuous operations.

Standard deliverables include orthomosaic maps, digital elevation models (DEM), digital surface models (DSM), 3D point clouds, contour maps, and volumetric calculations. Formats include GeoTIFF, LAS/LAZ, DXF, and KML.

Clear, overcast conditions are ideal for consistent lighting. Strong shadows from bright sun can affect processing. Wind speeds above 20mph impact image quality. Light rain doesn't affect results but reduces visibility.

Yes. Data can be delivered in coordinate systems matching your existing surveys. We can incorporate your control points and benchmarks for seamless integration with traditional survey data.
